> Perhaps the smallest Javascript assertion module

picoassert is a 113-byte Javascript assertion module based on
nanoassert.

Usage

``js
var assert = require("picoassert")

assert.eq(a, b, ${a} == ${b}); // Asserts a and b are equal.
assert.neq(a, b, ${a} != ${b}); // Asserts a and b are not equal.
assert.is(a, (!!${a}) === true); // Asserts a is truthy.
`

Why

The nanoassert repository README describes the author's complaint about the
excessive size of the assert module,
the standard assertion library. However, even the nanoassert library was
unnecessarily large, which led to the creation of picoassert.

This library is also an open golf
challenge. Please feel free to submit pull requests if you're able to shorten
the code!

Install

`sh
npm install picoassert
`

$3

The picoassert library can be imported via unpkg as shown
below:

`html



`

Be aware that picoassert is a CommonJS module and therefore uses
module.exports; before importing the script, you will need to define module
or use a CommonJS-compatible module loader.
